We had a great time with my 5 year old grandson at Dave and Buster's. He literally danced from game to game. We had a nice dinner. The black bean burger was good. Our server was friendly and the atmosphere was fun. read more

Where to start we are from out of town, we thought this would be a fun night out, it wasn't. First off the service it was awful, Heather was not busy enough to be so rude, I kept my composure they brought out food, the fries were undercooked, my Philly was loaded with more peppers then meat, we ordered the 2 78.99 deals for game cards and a 14.99 card deal. What a joke. My bread was so tough I couldn't even bite into it, it was awful. I asked for a side of mayo, she didn't tell me there was a charge. 59c check your bill. She came to run my card, notification card was charged 195.00 then she claims there was an error by now the manager also not so pleasant has come to table oh and was only offered a free dessert which was cold and the ice cream was freezer burnt, by now my daughter left to play games while I figure out the bs with the bill. Again it wasnt declined it was an error, again it came out if my account, now we cant leave the table without her holding a cc, nope sorry u got paid now and hour has passed,the gm guy comes out my husband and gone to find my daughter he came back pissed they tried to write down my full cc number made me repay this time in cash because they had an error what would someone do if they didnt have 400 and had already been charged 195 and the charge didn't fall off. You holding them is against the law so is not disclosing upcharges like flipping Mayo, Stay away. The gm did offer us some free game cards by now the night has been ruined, everyone was angry tired and out 400.00 I have filed thru the website submitted the receipts and proof. I will be expecting a full refund cash and card if I have to drive there myself. AVOID THIS PLACE HEATHER IS A SCAMMER ADDS EXTRA CHARGES WITHOUT TELLING YOY EXPECTS TO BE TIPPED OUT FOR SLIDING A CARD AND SERVING UNACCEPTABLE FOOD. NO SHE NEEDS TO BE FIRED. read more

My boyfriend & I went here for date night & we didn't even stay to play any games. The food was awful. For an appetizer we ordered the spinach dip. It really just tasted like creamed spinach with nearly burnt mozzarella on top & the chips were super greasy at the bottom. We ordered wings thinking "how could anyone possibly screw up wings?? it'll be fine..." it in fact was not fine. Something other than the crappy honey sriracha sauce was really off about the wings. Frozen maybe? We didnt finish the wings. The unseasoned sweet potato fries that they upcharged $4.99 for were underwhelming. Just an all around bad time on the food front. Service was just okay. Our server was chill but took a while because she was taking care of a couple big parties. The food runner seemed like she didn't want to be there. We were so turned off by everything so we just decided to pay & leave. The bill came out to about $65. Not worth it. read more

I was shocked by how good the food was here! I never ate here, only played games. I had the Daves double cheeseburger and it was amazing! Awesome seasoned fries too! My son had the chicken fingers that were perfect t! No pre packaged frozen crap here! The patty was real beef made fresh and I think the chicken strips were too! Can't beat the deal when buying game play anyway and you get these for $4.99 each! Great deal! I'll be back for the food for sure! Service was great too and the food came pretty quick. read more

I understand this is more for the experience and the kids; however, pay a little attention to your food please. As you can see from my picture the apple was hacked into non uniform inedible chunks, yes that was the entire apple like that. The others at the table said burgers were good, maybe i should not have ordered a salad at a sports bar... the service was slow, in fact the only reason I'm writing this is because they gave me enough time since I asked for the bill 20 minutes ago. Ambiance well it's Dave and busters so... the restrooms were severely unkempt, as toilets disgusting, baby change table broken, family restroom was "out of service" so yeah. I have been to many other D and B with no complaints. The pretzel dogs fell apart so my kids wouldn't eat them. read more

I was given a gift card for Dave & Buster's, and figured my fiance and I could make it into a date night. Wasn't super impressed by one of the ladies at the front when I came in; I told her that I wanted to use the gift card to get a game card and to put tickets on it, and for whatever reason she didn't understand what I was asking, and then she continued to ask me the same question several times and acted like I was stupid. It was the dumbest interaction I've ever had with a person... We eventually got it figured out, and my fiance and I went to play some games. It was fun, but there wasn't a huge variety, and they seemed to be mostly the same as they were the last time I came here, which was YEARS ago. We decided to grab a bite to eat after playing, and our server was very nice, so we definitely enjoyed that part. The girls bathroom looked like this when I went in... not really a great look. read more

Not very impressed with their operations and service. The lack of customer service is noticeable.

This is the worst video arcade my brother and I have ever been to. I have never set foot inside a Dave & Buster's anywhere, opting to go to other arcades in the past. I decided while on my Toledo trip to finally check one out. I got my brother to tag along. We regretted it. I will admit that the place is big, and it's full of games. Unfortunately, Most of these games suck. Sure Space Invaders is fun, so is Rampage... but all the others... geez. Arcades should games that test skill, not random happenstance or how much credits you throw into the machine! Case in point on the random, in the Injustice game, one character (battle of 3) randomly would be able to do a one move KO on one of the other opposing characters... how... why? i do not understand?!?!? We played multiple games to see if this would keep happening it did. Also, you're supposed to get a card of a superhero or villain every-time you play, didn't happen all the time. Not all of the machines give out tickets/points... so don't expect to get much when u go turn them in for prizes. I played for almost two hours and got a squishy stress game controller the size of three fingers. Thats not to say I wasn't upset to begin with. You're supposed to get some free plays when you first sign up. My brother and I never got them. I feel it just wasn't worth my time and money. read more

I ordered delivery so I did give some leeway on the cold fries because the flavor was there and I have an air fryer. Actually all of the food was Luke warm temperatures, but again, all finger foods and my air fryer works. But no one wanted the peperoni flatbread because it arrived all slid to 1 corner. We felt like we needed a gallon of water for the smash sliders because someone was really heavy-handed on the salt. The barbacoa dilla, the fries, and the boneless wings were decent, though. The barbacoa dilla was the winner! read more

Amazing food, some of the best food and service you can ask for in a restaurant/arcade!

Family fun. But as in family I mean my wife & I. We are almost literal big kids. Always do find time to enjoy each other's time. We did have issues with 2 machines but the reps took care of it ASAP. Thanks for everything read more

Brad, Brad, Brad... The more I speak his name the more love builds within my core. Words truly cannot express how exceptionally Brad tended to my family this cool Thursday evening. Celebrating a 7-year olds birthday is no easy feat, but surrendering your OWN, LIMITED EDITION, Pokemon cards definitely eases the blow. Our cauliflower bites still came on time even with you apologizing for their potential lateness. You served not only our table, but several other parties with great speed, AND kept a beautiful, upbeat, interactive attitude. We've got to play Overwatch sometime!!! You're talent in video games and service to this establishment is a virtue that I seek to pursue. Everyone needs a Brad in their life; everyone needs to BE like Brad. Love, peace, and God's grace be upon you for ever and ever my comrade!!! read more

The service is friendly if not overworked, and the food is generically as good as you could hope for, if not a little off (e.g. tomatoes on a caesar salad?!) Not somewhere I will go often, but it's 100% a fun place to spend a couple of hours, especially if you go 'off hours' and avoid the crowds. I can only imagine how insane it must get when it's busy! read more

If your looking for something fun to do in Toledo here's a place where everyone can have a good time. There are a variety of games, and they change them out & add new ones all the time. My son and nephew love it here. They have a blast being able to play and pick out prizes at the end. It can however become a little pricey, on average I spend about $70 per kid, And that roughly gives them a little over an hour of playtime. (There are less pricey options too!) I think their smiles mean everything so its totally worth it . * However if you're really looking for a deal, Wednesday's are half off on games! Have fun!! read more

The service was terrible. Drinks didn't come out but once. The food order was not taken all together, so obviously everyone's food came out separately. food was decent. games were great! read more

The reviews on this establishment must be outdated because what I've read below in no way describes the experience I had on my 21st. For starters this establishment is under fantastic management - AKA Jake. We walked in and were immediately welcomed by the nice lady behind the register. She was busy with another patron but she still made a point to welcome us - wonderful! Then Jake - the manager - opened up the other register and helped us. He was exceedingly kind and explained how everything works to a first timer. He took the time to help us setup the application, gave us some pointers and advice, and then went out of his way to make my 21st birthday special. Even though D & B has no "official" birthday promotion Jake went above and beyond to help me enjoy my big day. I'm so thankful to Jake for everything he did and would recommend this establishment to anyone just based on my interactions with him bud wait there's more. After interacting with Jake and figuring out how to start we made our way to the bar. It's my 21st time to get my first ever drink. The drink was amazing and every drink after it was just as great. Vicky or Vickie - sorry if I spelled it wrong I was drinking so you can't blame me for forgetting - was our bartender and she did a stellar job. I've never been to a bar before but I can tell you she gave me better service than any waiter/hostess I've ever had. She kept my water full and the drinks coming out. On top of that when there was a little delay in getting me another beer she discounted it - made it right - without me having to say a thing. The sports bare experience was amazing and I'd come back for a drink anytime I'm in this area! Oh you thought that was all? No - the games here are a blast. Think of your classic arcade and then times it by 100. As someone who spent most of his childhood in an arcade I can tell you this place lives up to the hype. There are so many games and experiences that I think anyone could find something they can enjoy. Hell - I think I could drag my Grandpa here and he'd have a blast playing some retro pac-man or space invaders. D&B of Toledo should be a template for other locations. They have a great team and run the establishment like clockwork. Management is active and walks around checking on people. Bartender is kind and cares about patrons having a good time. Staff are constantly cleaning and maintaining a safe/clean environment. This place is the best and I'm so happy we came to Toledo to experience it!!! read more

The crappy food reviews had me not expecting too much! I kept my expectations nice and low, and then I was PLEASANTLY surprised. First of all this place has GREAT happy hour specials from 4-7 during the week. 5$ appetizers (including their pretzels and cheese)!!! I had a 5$ nice and strong not too sweet 150 calorie mixed drink... can't beat that! They also have an all you can eat wing night and several play and eat weekday specials. We ordered ribs and slider combo to split (since we had the aforementioned appetizer) and the ribs were GOOD, not omg hot off Dad's grill great, but for chain non BBQ they were as good as it gets. Our sliders were nice sized, perfectly cooked and came with some decent grilled onions, plenty of cheese and a crunchy pickle, I hate soggy floppy pickles (insert dirty joke here). The fries while not fresh cut did come out crispy, hot, and perfectly seasoned. Now for the games- everything was clean and in good working order! Everything!!!! Not one game was out of commission and there were not stray cups and napkins and filth per the usual eat and play places. We picked up a groupon and played dirt cheap all afternoon. It was pouring outside so we thought it might be crowded, nope. Now for the missing star. The service was unreasonably slow. Perhaps it's part of their ploy to get you to stay and play longer while you wait a RIDICULOUS amount of time for your food. The timing was also off. We waited as I said quite a long time for our pretzels and drinks. Maybe 3 minutes later out came our meal. I probably would have had another drink had the wait staff been paying attention to us instead of each other. They were friendly, but quite preoccupied. read more

Not the place to go for good drinks. It doesn't take much for me to get tipsy and if I spend 28 bucks for two drinks I expect to feel something. I had the strawberry watermelon margarita and lemonade blackberry or something like that. read more

I'm in complete disbelief. Every single plate that was brought out was dirty. My husbands ordered a coke and to my disgust, there was the previous persons lips smothered in the rim of the cup. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. I will NEVER return to this establishment. We are from out of town, and expected better services from a food chain that we frequent in out state, Arizona. If I could give a zero rating on this I would. The manager, Jim was apologetic and understanding however, the experience was so poor that I still felt like I needed to write a review. read more

I am addicted to D&Bs! I happened to be visiting family in toledo and I had knew that they had opened a D&Bs near the mall since my last visit. I told my husband that we will have to make a stop to check it out. Overall it is your typical D&Bs with many games. They had a wide variety of games to include coin games, basketball, racing, skeeball, etc. We were lucky as all games were working on our visit and it wasn't crowded on a Saturday afternoon. We didn't order any food but we did get a drink at the bar. The bartender was nice and has no problem with our bill read more

3.5 stars. I've been to plenty of other D&Bs to know this one is on the smaller side. For starters, this one doesn't have pool tables, which is a huge bummer. I'm always expecting to shoot some pool when I'm at a bar-cade. Last time I was there was for my 8-year-old's classmate birthday party. Kids get to play arcade and parents get to drink and watch some sports. I'm okay with this idea! They have separate back-areas for private events and birthday parties, and were adequately separated from the potential rowdy crowd. Food was okay for the kids -- the usual chicken chunks, pizzas, mozzarella sticks, fries etc. We were offered to dig in, but wife and I opted for the actual bar-food with our slightly over-priced cocktails. Drinks are definitely on the gimmicky side with glow-in-the-dark neon garnishments and such. But my wife is a huge sucker for these gimmicks, and as long as they taste good, I say it's fine. (Happy wife, happy life!) Bartenders and servers were very friendly and nice, but when pressure got to them they became a bit inattentive. It took my bartender a good 15 minutes to come back and grab my credit card for cash-out. And this was after I stood up from the bar, ready to leave, and only with maybe 4 parties at the bar. I didn't play any games this time around, but I'm reading other people complain about some machines/cards not working etc... Look. You're always gonna have busted up machines at arcades. If majority of them work, and they do a decent job of updating to newest games, I'd say there's not much to complain in this department. Then again, I guess if I was strictly there to play arcades, then my perspective might be different. I'm sure I'll go back when another occasion arises, since our experience wasn't terrible. In fact, wife seems to like their drinks, and may opt to return here instead next time the 8-year-old asks to go to Chuck E. Cheeses. read more

We had so much fun this was our first time here, Kinda wish the menu had more "snacky " things because though my dinner was delicious I was anxious to go play the games lol if we wasn't in the process of a ice storm I would've been there tonight. read more

I love the games and the location but.... To avoid names I think y'all should be a little stricter on hygiene of your employees. One in particular smelled so bad it was nauseating and I feel like I almost passed out. Please for the love of Jesus Christ almighty the one up high make sure your workers smell clean and not like that. read more

You get what you pay for. My daughter love the games, it's just very costly for below average toys. The food is ok, drinks are really good, but would rather spend money at nearby restaurant. This place is a quick fix if your on the fence about taking your children somewhere to have fun. read more

After some of the reviews I was hesitant. But had a friend coming from out of town that wanted to try it. So let's do this. Food was good, service was good, and the kids loved the games, we had a good time. It's pricey, $100 for three people to eat and play but honestly that's the norm lately. Only complaint is that even though food came out fast it was a little cold but otherwise a good time read more

Went here on a Wednesday in August cause you get half off on games during the week. Food was good and we had so much fun playing the games. I love fried cauliflower and they had it on the menu and was so happy to see it was just like I remembered. Very good read more

I went here not expecting much as the reviews for this place are pretty poor. We arrived about 6:00pm on a Saturday night and had two choices seating, the dining room or seat yourself in the bar area. Sitting in the bar area is usually always the best bet. In most cases the servers working are better than the rest of the staff...they have to be to keep up with the constant flow of customers. Additionally, if you order alcoholic beverages (which I do and believe if you're dining out you always should), you'll get them faster. We grabbed a booth in the bar area which was about half full. Our server came over quickly with some menus and took our drink order. The drinks took some time, longer than I think they should've based on where we were in proximity to the bar. But I was easily able to see what was happening, the bartenders were busy making massive amounts of shots that slowed their ability to pour a draft beer. Finally our beers arrived, but they had about two inches of head space...for those of you that don't know what this is, it's the amount of foam on top of a beer. It should be about 3/4 of an inch to an inch...this was strange. I was able to see why though, there was a bartender how would sit the glass down on the grate under the tap and open it fully. So what happens, it foams up with a loose head that is much more than it should be. This only happened once so I wonder if the person pouring was trying to help out and was untrained. The menu is fairly well laid out with a lot of options from sandwiches to full entrees, although the pages stuck together so that's annoying. I opted for the Triple Bacon Burger which I was sure was going to be too large but looked good. Our food came out in a reasonable amount of time, first my two dining companions meals and then about thirty seconds later my meal....or so I thought. It was the wrong burger, and the food runner even confirmed that the kitchen dupe stated it should've been the Triple Bacon Burger but it was some double burger monstrosity. The server came over, apologized and promised to fix it quickly. About five minutes later my refired burger arrived and looked great. A manager brought it and apologized for the inconvenience. This went in a strange direction as he then asked me "how long did it take to get the new one". I gave him my five minute answer but the more I thought about this the stranger it was. Was this a ploy to use against a customer who was upset at this mix up (which I wasn't)? Was he testing his floor staffs ability to priority an issue or his kitchen team? He should've know the time so this was an arbitrary question in my opinion. He then said he would drop a dessert menu to make up for it. This is always a bad decision...and here's why. The number one job of a staff in a restaurant is to give a diner a great experience. When things happen (which they do), they need to find out what the guest wants to make it better. In some cases a customer wants dessert, in other cases the appropriate thing to do is to comp the item that was wrong, and in others sometimes an apology is all that is required. By automatically only offering dessert the customers concerns are disregarded (usually unintentionally) and the experience is downgraded. We didn't get dessert, I didn't want the sandwich for free...his apology was enough for me but I hope in the future (if you read this management staff) a lesson is learned. Not all guests are as forgiving. When my burger arrived it was good, but at first I thought it was missing something. I swore that I read it should've came with pork belly but it didn't appear to have any. I reread the description and it said: Applewood smoked bacon, peppered bacon pork belly, bacon & smoked Gouda sauce, Manchego and cheddar cheeses, lettuce and house-made aioli. Aha, the old "call bacon pork belly" trick. So, it was exactly as it should've been I simply didn't read it completely. But in reality, bacon is pork belly that's been cured and smoked (remember that you people that buy that uncured crap). Sure some Chef's get creative and do lamb bacon or something like that but in most cases there's no need to list is as they did. Anyways, the burger was cooked as I ordered and was pretty good, big as I expected. The fries were good too...seasoned properly with a salt and pepper blend. Later after cashing out at our table we went to the game side, which isn't my thing so I'm not going to rate them on that. But I opened a tab at the bar...the bartenders were quick, attentive and friendly. Overall, the service was good for our visit. The food was good. There were some cleanliness things that need to be addressed, ketchup and mustard bottles covered in dried condiments and the aforementioned menus. But in the end it was a good experience. read more

Drove 2 hours to come here. Awful manager. Took my 17 year old sister out to enjoy our weekend and spend som quality time.. at 11 we got kicked out because she's under 21. However the website and their advertisement on site says if they are under 18 they must be accompanied by an adult 25 or older. I'm 26.... (and have not consumed any alcoholic beverages) They handled the situation very unprofessional. Very dissatisfied. read more

First time visitors. I was skeptical because the reviews were very poor. Particularly regarding the service. We found the service to be adequate. In fact Jillian was very nice. We got the steak and the chicken cantina nachos (among other things) and we found them to be very good. The mixed drinks were good, albeit over priced. The arcade was very fun as well. So we will be back!! read more

This D&B is just OK to me. I have been to several, my favorite being Providence RI. This D&B seems to be a glorified chuck cheese. I feel like most games are either geared toward small kids or are high cost shooter games. Other D&B I have been to had better selections of interactive games and were more fun. Others also kicked kids out WAY before 10PM. I prefer group games but not shooter games that cost 10 credits to play for 3 minutes. Sometimes I just enjoy mind numbing stuff like chip away and ski ball. Wouldn't mind some pinball either. read more

This place is racist. Food was cold and tasteless. Management was rude and the bar tender guy was even more rude

So my 18 yr old son spent $28 to take his 17 yr old girlfriend to Dave and Busters. He purchased through their app. They went to D & B in Toledo and were not allowed in because she is under age. They WILL NOT REFUND his money! Stay away! Shame on you D & B. read more

Hate the game not the players: First of all kudos with all the staff with handling all the returns. This is a classic hate the game scenario. There was a huge misunderstanding and at the end we were borderline kicked out. We all got refunds but it wasn't a passable experience. read more

Guy working front counter was super rude and we left because of his behavior towards me and my friends.

Service was terrible. Food and drinks were sub par. Don't go here.

Absolutely disgusting. Waited a hour for a table, then waited 30 mins for drinks a sever then another 45 minutes for our drinks to actually come after asking for them several times. Finally after what seemed like n eternal death, an hour and a half later our food arrive and to start mine was over cooked and served cold. My sons chicken tenders came out grilled, burnt and cold. My daughters macaroni and cheese was a knock off of kraft and cold as well. Over priced and under served. Manager came to apologize and we still ended up with a bill minus a few items. Which after receiving it took 20 minutes to get paid. All while the restaurant was not busy or packed it was an average night with an average capNever ever go here. I was very unhappy leaving and so was my son since it was his birthday after all. read more

I've been here at least 10 times and it's only gotten worse! We waited 20 mins even before ordering drinks. After I had to track down someone to serve us.... Who wasn't even the waiter! I'm sitting in the booth right now for the food. I'm sure it will be 40 mins before we can even eat something and we ordered an appetizer. Wish toledo has more entertainment because this place would be out of business so fast! Horrible customer service and obviously management is messed up. read more

It is a fun atmosphere with all of the games and Christmas music. And, fortunately, it wasn't very busy!! We had a really long wait for our food, but once it came it was fairly decent - pretty much what you expect from a b-dubs type menu. The wings that came on the appetizers sampler were very good! We had some troubles with the games but the staff was friendly and helpful with the problems we had and rectified them immediately and gave us a free turn. A great place to take the family for a night out. read more
